Black and Indigenous histories carry generations of resistance and a connection to land, culture, and identity that oppression could never fully erase.

In this conversation, we explore how an inferiority complex can be taught and what it means to reclaim pride in who we are.

Who are the Garífuna? 🇭🇳🇬🇹🇧🇿🗺️

A people whose history is rooted in resistance, resilience, and cultural preservation.

With ancestral roots tracing back to the Caribbean island of Saint Vincent, the Garífuna emerged from the blending of African and Indigenous Caribbean communities.

Despite centuries of colonial conflict, displacement, and attempts to suppress their identity, the Garífuna have continued to preserve their language, traditions, music, and deep sense of community.

In this conversation, @itswavyfox shares the powerful history behind the Garífuna people and what makes their cultural identity so unique.

A story of survival, resistance, and the importance of knowing where you come from.

How much did you know about Garífuna history before today? 🇬🇹

Growing up Garífuna in New York meant navigating identity and belonging.

@itswavyfox shares how she sometimes felt like she wasn’t Black enough for her Black friends or Latina enough around her Puerto Rican and Dominican peers. At times, that left her feeling isolated and unsure of where she fit in.

However, her family’s support, especially her mom’s reminders of their Garífuna roots, helped her feel grounded in who she was.
